I had no idea what I was really getting myself into when I blindly agreed to move with my brother after we both finished college and were looking for jobs. He said that he landed us job positions at a huge company and a nice apartment to boot. In reality the apartment was a few steps above “run down” and the job left a lot to be desired. I was almost immediately disappointed and wanted to get out at any opportunity. Unfortunately, in my unended quest to find an exit from this new city, I didn’t consider what could result from making a huge geographical leap, especially from the northern midwest to the southeast. I knew that hiking would be different, but I wasn’t expecting to read about all of these different rattlesnakes and venomous spiders that I have to look out for when I’m in the woods. But one of the most annoying aspects about moving to the south is the heat and humidity. Many people down here utilize their air conditioners throughout the whole year to mitigate humidity if they’re not also trying to reduce the warm temperatures leaking inside from outdoors. I learned right away that I can’t really survive in this kind of environment without a good air conditioner. This is true for a car as well, as one single summer with an a/c in my vehicle left me covered in sweat everyday on my way to work. I had to bring a separate set of clothes to change into whenever I arrived. I even used a few body wipes to get rid of the sweat, ensuring that I wouldn’t smell by the time I reached my lunch hour at 12pm.
air duct cleaning
Son painted the air conditioning unit
Why would my son do that? I still don’t get why he acts out all the time.
His main source of acting out is using paint.
The thing is I have no clue where he is getting it from. It’s infuriating when I see him paint the fridge or even the TV screen. Do you know how hard it is to get dry paint out of a TV screen? Those are a couple of things but he has even painted our cats, on more than one occasion. You’d think that a 12 year old would learn their lesson but apparently not. This morning he found paint, yeah again, and he splashed it all over the air conditioning unit. So this would be the 8th time he has attempted or ruined something. I’m angry at two things, one it’s paint, obviously and two it’s summer and it’s super hot out! Now I don’t know if I can clean this properly or if I should call the cooling company to send out a cooling expert to look at it. Oh boy, I probably should but what’s next? I might have to get him psychiatric help or something because I’m running out of answers. I’m also hoping he didn’t break the air conditioning unit and it’s easily cleaned and no damage to be done to have the a/c repaired. Have you ever felt defeated? I can say I do now and it hurts that I can’t get my son to stop doing these sorts of things. I guess I’ll see if I can get him counseling on top of it.
Why should I call the HVAC tech before it’s cold?
My mom keeps letting everything in her house rot away.
- Since my dad passed two years ago nothing is really being taken care of.
You can see the paint is chipping a bit, dishes are barely touched, the lawn isn’t cut unless I come over and etc. I know she isn’t happy but all I can do is show my support. Winter is coming and her house might not survive it. I also may be a little dramatic saying that but everything is falling apart. It’s September now and without my dad there she really needs to get ahold of an HVAC technician. My dad did all the cleaning and work around their heating and cooling systems before he passed but I’m sure it hasn’t been looked at in two years now. I told her to contact Charlie, the HVAC expert to come over or call the HVAC company to schedule something with them. If the house holds up I still want to make sure it’s warm to last the frigid winter and one day walk into her house with her passed away. She doesn’t like me talking about those types of situations but it’s true. I love my mom and losing my dad these past couple of years has already been tough and my mom is all I have left. If she doesn’t reach out to the heating and cooling company very soon I’m going to schedule an appointment and if I have to I’ll pay for the heating and cooling technician to do any necessary repairs. I don’t care what she has to say about it but I’ll do it.
Ductless heat pump transforms garage
I guess I really didn’t consider just how much usable space I was wasting when it came to the garage.
When we first bought this house, I remember being so excited to have an actual garage.
I lived inside apartments for a decade after college. And there were two things those apartments never had. There was never any new residential HVAC equipment and there was never a garage. So when we bought this house, it came with the latest in heating and cooling equipment and a two car garage. Actually, the garage is a bit bigger than a standard two car garage. It’s a bit wider but far more deep than most garages I’ve seen. At first, we parked my wife’s car and my truck in the garage. We also had the washer and dryer out there. But as the years went by, my truck ended up losing its space thanks to the supposed need for storage. Actually, we were just taking stuff from inside the central air conditioning of the house and dumping it in the garage. This saved us from having to either chuck that stuff or give it away. That trend continued until my wife’s car wouldn’t even fit in the garage. Before long, I wouldn’t even open the garage door because I was so ashamed of the junkyard the garage had become. Finally, I had to tackle that situation. It took me nearly a month of weekends but I got it cleaned out and organized. The wife’s car went back in the garage. But instead of putting my truck back in there, I had the HVAC company install a ductless heat pump. I then turned part of that garage space into an awesome hobby area for my wife and I.
a/c set up
I found a ductless HVAC system online.
I know I’m cheap. My wife is always yelling at me for being cheap. Why spend $10 for wavy hair, when you can a bigger bottle for $1 at the dollar store. I may need to use a bit more, but it is cheap, and that’s okay. When we were told we needed anew HVAC system, I went shopping. I wanted to purchase a ductless HVAC system. I didn’t know I should look at the SEER or the dimensions, but I knew what I was looking at. I thought I had found the perfect mini split ductless HVAC system. I was going to put a unit in every room of the house, and it would cost less than $1000. That was 10% of what I would pay to the HVAC company. I ordered the HVAC system and anxiously waited for it to arrive. When it got to the house, it was smaller than I thought it should be, but I didn’t care. I looked through the boxes, but I could find instructions on how to use it. I found a couple of pages that ten different languages, but none of them were English. I didn’t know how to install the ductless HVAC system, or how to use them. I called my brother Matt, who was an HVAC specialist. When he looked at the ductless HVAC system, he laughed. He couldn’t believe I would buy something like this online without seeing it. He told me my cheapness was going to cost me a lot of money. He told me to send it back, but the seller was no longer showing up online. This machine wouldn’t work for my house.
He sent me to HVAC school for homeowners.
My husband told me it was time I started changing the air filters on my own. He wasn’t always going to be around, and he wanted to know I could change the air filters in the HVAC system and in the air purifier. I didn’t want to play with those dirty things, but he was serious. He told me he found a class at the community college. The class was HVAC for the homeowner. He said he was going to go with me, but we were going to sign up for the class. I called the community college the next day and signed up for HVAC for the homeowner classes. I thought my husband and I were going to be the only ones there, but I was wrong. There were first-time homeowners, and people older than we were, and we were retired. A part of me was wondering if I fell to sleep would I snore? I was sure this was going to be boring, but I was wrong. The owner of our HVAC company was the instructor. He told us how the HVAC system worked and what each component was supposed to do. We heard what would happen if certain parts were cracked, and I knew we didn’t want that to happen. He then started showing us things we could do to help prevent things from going wrong in the HVAC system. I thought they would just show us how to change the air filters, but it went a lot further than that. We even learned how to do the inspection on our air conditioning units. That was a class I was glad my husband forced me into going to.
I have been doing work in our bathroom
I have been toiling in our bathroom because the air conditioner doesn’t seem to be toiling someplace else in our house. I don’t guess what the issue is, but something has really got to give. The weather is still pretty warm around here and it doesn’t seem to be cooling off that much yet, even though the summer time is supposed to be almost over. I can’t sit to be too warm and whenever I don’t have air conditioner in our house, I end up getting a headache and I can’t get any labor done. I have to concentrate on our labor and when I get too warm it really makes myself and others lose our concentration, then working in the bathroom is really strange because you just never think about having to do labor in the bathroom! I have to hang towels behind myself and others so that the people that I have meetings with won’t realize that I’m in the bathroom. That would be really embarrassing but the problem with the air conditioner is just so awful now that I can’t sit to be someplace in the condo except in the bathroom. I appreciate the fact that the bathroom stays so cold but I wish that the air conditioner was genuinely toiling someplace else in the condo other than the bathroom. I assume I’m going to have to make an appointment with the Heating and A/C supplier to get the rest of the air conditioner fixed. I assume I’ve waited long enough to get the whole thing inspected, though; Every one of us have to get the air conditioning fixed.
The a/c isn’t laboring in the recreational vehicle
It’s just 1 of those things that we can’t seem to figure out and I guess that if we go, we are just going to be agitated
The a/c isn’t laboring in our camper, and that’s entirely messing up our plans for this weekend! I was planning on going camping for the weekend with our kids and the rest of our family, however then the a/c stopped laboring and now I don’t think that I’m going to be able to go… The weather around here has been entirely overheated for the past month, and it definitely doesn’t look care about it’s going to be cooling off anytime soon. The temperature earlier this week was 92 degrees and it’s supposed to be around the same later on this weekend, i just don’t think that there is any way that I am going to be able to stay in that camper in all of that heat without having a laboring a/c. I think that I would just be agitated and I don’t think that we could possibly have a easily wonderful time without having the a/c fixed first; Usually our partner is able to get the heating and cooling plan fixed before we go someplace in the camper, however for some reason, he can’t figure out what the concern is with the a/c this time. It’s just 1 of those things that we can’t seem to figure out and I guess that if we go, we are just going to be agitated. I think that our partner just wants to go regardless of whether the a/c is laboring or not, however that just isn’t going to work for me. I want to go, however not in these circumstances!
Our kitten really enjoys the heating system
Our pet really prefers it whenever I run the heating method in the car, but it’s really a funny thing to watch during the Winter when I take the pet out for a ride; Sometimes during the winter, she doesn’t get to go out for a walk because the weather is just too horrible. I regularly suppose terrible whenever that happens because that means that the pet is stuck in the home for literally the entire day. I hate it when that happens because I know that she must go stir crazy occasionally. She can’t just leave whenever she wants to, either. That’s why I regularly try to go take her for a ride in the car. It cracks me up because she is regularly so gleeful for me to turn the heating method on in the car. She gets up in the seat plus presses her nose right up against the heating vents in the car! When the car starts up plus the heating comes on, she sniffs plus snorts appreciate crazy. She just really prefers the heating method for some reason. I suppose that a lot of fun new smells must come in the car through the air vents plus that’s why she gets so gleeful about it… Either that, or she just likes to suppose the warm air on her nose! Either way, it’s really the cutest thing ever. The pet doesn’t care all that much about the heating plus cooling vents inside of the home although she really prefers the 1s in the car, that’s for sure.
Our pup actually enjoys the gas furnace
Our dog actually enjoys it whenever I run the heating method in the car, it’s actually a funny thing to watch while the people I was with and I were in the Winter when I take the dog out for a ride, and sporadically while the people I was with and I were in the winter, he doesn’t get to go out for a walk because the weather is just too horrible.
I always think bad whenever that happens because that means that the dog is stuck in the house for literally the entire day. I hate it when that happens because I think that he must go stir silly sporadically. She can’t just leave whenever he wants to, either! That’s why I always try to go take his for a ride in the car. It cracks myself and others up because he is always so gleeful for myself and others to turn the heating method on in the car. She gets up in the seat & presses his nose right up against the heating vents in the car! When the car starts up & the heating comes on, he sniffs & snorts like crazy. She just actually enjoys the heating method for some reason. I think that a lot of fun current stinks must come in the car through the air vents & that’s why he gets so gleeful about it. Either that, or he just prefers to think the sizzling air on his nose! Either way, it’s actually the cutest thing ever. The dog doesn’t care all that much about the heating & cooling vents inside of the house but he actually enjoys the a singles in the car, that’s for sure.

Why should I call the Heating and A/C tech before it’s cold?
My mom keeps letting everything in his home rot away, since our Mom passed many years ago nothing is really being taken care of.
You can see the paint is chipping a bit, dishes are barely touched, the shrubbery isn’tsplit unless I come over & etc, then i know he isn’tcheerful however all I can do is show our support, however winter time is coming & his home might not survive it.
I also may be a little dramatic saying that however everything is falling apart. It’s November now & separate from our Mom there he really needs to get ahold of an Heating and A/C serviceman, my Mom did all the cleaning & work around their heating & cooling systems before he passed however I’m sure it has not been looked at in many years now. I told his to contact Charlie, the Heating and A/C expert to come over or call the Heating and A/C company to schedule something with them. If the home holds up I still want to make sure it’s moderate to last the cold Winter time & 1 afternoon walk into his home with his passed away. She doesn’t love myself and others talking about those types of situations however it’s true. I love our mom & losing our Mom these past couple of years has already been difficult & our mom is all I have left. If he doesn’t reach out to the heating & cooling company particularly soon I’m going to schedule an appointment & if I have to I shall pay for the heating & cooling serviceman to do any necessary repairs. I don’t care what he has to say about it however I shall do it.
